Proposal for a Longitudinal Study of Student Trajectories in University Programs Universidad de los Llanos, Colombia The educational process undertaken by students creates an ideal scenario for studying the educational trajectories of programs through longitudinal analyses. This type of analysis allows for the evaluation of trends and patterns in students' academic progression, as well as low graduation rates, the time taken to complete their professional studies, and high dropout rates. Each of these aspects should be studied by institutions to improve program quality, which is assessed through accreditation and registration processes. In Colombia, the average dropout rate at the higher education level is approximately 45%, while in Latin America, it is 50%. For this study, a mixed-methods approach is proposed. The quantitative approach is supported by the application of descriptive and correlational techniques, as well as longitudinal models, based on the analysis of information provided by university programs. | |
